this kind of colors give a feeling of softness, comfort and femininity.

Marc Jacob 2008 F/W Color Analysis

although it shall be a cold winter, Marc Jacobs 's F/W collection appears that it shall be a warmer one. i do not know if it is because of the global warming problem, but it must be related to his S/S collection. Pastel color of both warm and cool colors: orange-pink, khaki, lavender, violet, turquoise and orange-red.



just like the S/S collection, black are often used with grey in various shade.
grey in different shade in one outfit creates layering in a subtle way. an image of formality, simplicity and elegance is moulded.

but even if the majority is grey or black, MJ added bright colors to accessories and shoes.
the outfit is thus more playful.


apart from pastel colors, metallic colors are also used.golden and silver color, some mixed with a bit of brown dark blue and grey, make the costume shiny and spendid.
